  1. Wouldn't be opposed to signing any of these guys. Also wouldn't mind buying a lottery ticket or 2...Giles, Alex Reyes, converting Wacha, etc.
  2. I just want to see Royce, Kirilloff, and Larnach stay healthy and have a little success, and Miranda and Gordon repeat theirs. Not ready for these new guys yet! ...unless we trade Polanco.
  3. I actually wouldn't mind Gallo in the leadoff spot...for reasons mentioned in the article, and for the fact that pitchers aren't as sharp 1st inning and tend to throw more strikes. He would probably end up with at least 10 leadoff HRs. That being said, Rocco can pull names out of a hat for 1-5 each game and it wouldn't make much of a difference.
  4. I am terrible at creating polls...if someone doesn't mind, can you create a simple "yes" or "no" poll for if you think Bauer pitches in the bigs this year? Please and thank you!
  5. you don't think he ends up signing with anyone?? might be right, but someone will bite...
  6. Although the majority of MLB teams will not even consider signing Trevor Bauer to join their club, he will inevitably be pitching for someone in 2023. This is a strangely curious topic for me, and I am intrigued where everyone predicts he will ultimately end up. Below is my rankings list of potential Bauer suiters, along with a few of my thoughts. Would you be surprised if the Yankees sign him? Where do you think he ends up? Thank you for your thoughts! (30) LAD (29) TOR (doubtful Canada lets him in the country) (28) HOU (probably not a good way to help rebuild your franchise's reputation) (27) SEA (26) St. Louis (25) LAA (Angels would have been a potential landing spot for me...if many of his ex-girlfriends did not preside in LA) (24) MIA (23) MIN *The following teams are all wildcards for me and come in at a tie. You might argue they are rebuilding teams or teams out of contention, and they do not want their clubhouses poisoned by Bauer's antics. Or they want to give their prospects playing time over a veteran. However, it only takes one of these teams to roll the dice, hoping that he might stay out of trouble until the trade deadline, where they can flip his nearly-free contract for some decent prospects to a team desperate for pitching in the playoffs* (22-18) KC, DET, OAK, WASH, PIT *Former teams, willing to give him another chance...for whatever reason(s)* (17-15) CLE, CIN, ARI (14) COL (Do their moves ever make sense?) *Bauer might be assassinated if he messes up again in these places* (13-10) BOS, TEX, PHI, ATL (9) Baltimore (8) SD (7) NYM (6) CHI White Sox (5) SF (I don't know why...just seems like it might happen) (4) NYY (3) CHI Cubs (Desperate to win again and desperate for SP) (2) MIL (For some reason I can see them signing him under the radar to have MAYBE the best rotation in the game...Burnes, Woodruff, Peralta, Bauer, etc.) (1) TB (many of you will disagree with this, but here are my points: fits their budget, keeps him away from other AL East teams, can be used in a variety of their pitching schemes/strategies...opener, starter, middle relief, etc...otherwise, flipped for prospects) *Forgot to add this little tidbit...I can see him signing later in the year...either when things blow over a little more or when injuries occur*
  7. Love Gallon. Not sure if he is a 1...if he isnt hes a really good 2. Who knows where Arizona is. They are really confusing. Maybe they want to rebuild and get out of Marte's contract also? Who knows. Gallon and Marte for? Arraez, Polanco, Larnach, Ober, and Kepler?
  8. Why is his body breaking down? Dude will be on the cheap for age 26, 27, and 28 seasons. .300 hitter would can be utility guy. There's value there.
  9. More realistically I'm going after Luzardo. Polanco and Ober might be an overpay, but I'd do it. I like Arraez more than Polanco, but one of the 2.
  10. I looked at that site as well...not great but gives you an idea. It also comes down to how close a team is to winning. Miami is not. The NL east is loaded. Which is why, if they get the right deal, they might trade Alcantara...if they feel it will make their team better in long run. Seattle isn't a power house, but a playoff contender for sure. Trading Julio wouldn't make sense in their case. Angels tried with Trout, but never got close. How many playoff games has he even played? I live near LA and have a lot of friends who are Angel fans. I tell them they should trade Trout all the time. Pisses them off but they know they're not winning until major changes are made.
